Gorbachev calls on Obama to carry out 'perestroika' in the U.S.

He said that, "being a liberal himself, he thinks that the world will take a left turn," and that "a global perestroika would be a logical response to the global crisis."

"The paradigm of global development is about to change. The era inaugurated by Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher 30 years ago is over."

****

Hold onto something tight. All you that voted for CHANGE. Start getting it out of your pocket!! LOL.

Btw.. look at the above link from Russia. The Moscow News on the side.. Rotates all the MILITARY abilities of Russia. How nice that is the only News highlights from Moscow.

The above quotes are actually from:

"Former Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky, founder of now defunct Yukos oil giant, who is in prison on fraud and tax evasion charges, also used the word perestroika in discussing the future course of the Obama administration."

Just wanted to clarify as the above post appeared, to me, to contribute them to Gorbachev. However, it is possible that He agrees with Mr. Khodorkovsky's comments.
